For the second time in the less than four months, the US Senate has resoundingly voted in support of continuing the genocide in Gaza by rejecting two resolutions aimed at blocking some $9 billion in weapons to the Israeli government.

    WHY is it so fucking hard for them to take a hard line against genocide?? What the fuck. I feel like I’m going crazy watching this.

      I am old enough to remember 9/11. The only reason I can think of is that the US wants Muslims to die and they don’t care who does it.

      That’s exactly it. I just don’t get it. Seems like a no-brainer to me, but apparently I’m wrong.

      I guess it’s about money? Or they still think that being against genocide will lose them votes in the future? Or something.

        No, its profit. They’re making big bucks on the weapon sales.

        Over half of the US population is opposed to sending weapons to the Zionists.
